Sport and Exercise Science BSc (Hons)

The BSc (Hons) Sport and Exercise Science degree is delivered by world-leading experts in state-of-the-art facilities in our award-winning Tom Reilly Building. Sports scientists work in the sports industries with athletes, coaches and governing bodies to help improve elite performance or in communities promoting healthy lifestyles. Through the multi-disciplinary study of the behavioural, physical and life sciences, this degree prepares you for a highly rewarding career in sports or exercise contexts - including scientific support, rehabilitation, exercise training and health promotion. The foundations and principles underpinning sport and exercise science are covered in the first two years. This provides the multi-disciplinary grounding recommended by the British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences (BASES). In the final year there is discipline specialisation and an independent research project led by the student. Thanks to strong links with industry partners, we have a clear understanding of the needs and expectations of employers and are able to design the course with your future employability in mind. Formal work-related learning opportunities are provided in the final year where students will apply the skills and theory they have learnt through an applied placement module.
